Thank God I'm Forgiven Friday! What are you thankful about? Tell God and share with some others!
Today is a unique day in my history. Feb. 21, 1998 my father passed. He had told my mom he was praying for me to turn from my addictions and come back to God. Dec 29th (his birthday) 2001 that happened. Then on Feb. 21st 2002 God answered a life long prayer to lead me to a good Christian woman to marry. I was "struck by lightning" when I shared with one of my candy truck customer, Karen, that I was saved and she said so am I. Now she didn't feel the lightning. Another man was the furthest thing from her mind that day--the day her divorce became final--but God had other plans that eventually resulted in our marriage.. PTL! I am blessed beyond measure! People sometimes ask how I got a woman like like and my reply is always God! It sure wasn't me! So today, I have many things to be thankful about: the assurance that because my dad believed and was baptized that he is in heaven, answered prayers, my salvation, and God's gifts to me including Karen. My prayer is that I would continue to learn to agape her better and die to self to bless her and others always. I am truly thankful for all the facets of my salvation and the answered prayers. God is always good and always at work. PTL! Who needs to hear your story?
Good Morning Forgiven Much, Thankful, Followers of Jesus! Meditate on all the facets of that today and rejoice with much thanksgiving!
I hope this email comes out ok. My computer is getting whackier and changed all my emails. I can't highlight or change fonts etc anymore.
Check out our devos below. God was speaking to me today and drawing me close. may He speak to you as well! Pray for us as we complete this week at home and for Sarah as she brings the Word Sunday. And pray for each other. God has custom made plans for you and us for such a time as this! Rejoice!
Well, you're on your own. This dumb new email won't let me copy and past my devos either. Giess I need to work on that today! The thread was that God loves, you always, has great plans for you and wants to enlarge our territory. I remember a few years ago when Sarah shared how she was praying into that. God is hearing and answering as we both have been praying for that. PTL! Pray He continues to do so and grow us and all who will come into the people we are created to be and doing more and more of what we are created to do. God is with us, for us and has great plans for you and us! PTL! let us continue to pursue Him and His plans and allow Him to mold, shape and prepare us for the days ahead--and all for His glory! Amen!
